Our Values
Diversity: We believe deeply in the important role of DIVERSITY in the success of our students and institution. We recognize that our highest potential – individually and collectively – can only be achieved when we: embrace and celebrate the diversity in our student body and community; hire, support, and retain a diverse and highly-qualified workforce; provide a wide array of diverse course offerings, academic programs, and support services; ensure that diverse perspectives and culturally-responsive practices are reflected in our curricula and learning environments; and advocate for racial and social justice for all.
Equity
Respect: All members of our campus community deserve – and must be treated with – RESPECT. We honor the attributes, skills, abilities, and contributions of each individual, and are committed to treating one another with dignity, civility, and compassion.
Empowerment
Integrity: We demonstrate INTEGRITY in the development and delivery of all programs, services, and operations. As good stewards of public resources and trust, it is incumbent upon us to educate and engage our students, colleagues, and community with honesty, transparency, and accountability.
